Democrat tax cuts work like this: take money from everybody, and give it to a few of your friends. Or pick names out of a hat. I hired a guy four weeks too soon in 2010; the business down the street hired four weeks later and got out of payroll taxes for a year on his hire. Thanks a lot, Democrats, I love it when you take money from me to arbitrarily give it to my neighbor--who is in about the same circumstances. "Targeted tax cuts" means "arbitrary money spray." How about we try the same rules for everybody? Try equal treatment under the law for a change?

So sorry to hear that happened to you.

The demwits live by 'take from/do to thee, but not me.' Equal treatment does not work for entitlement minded people as the mindset is again, 'take from thee, but not me,' The left has become almost rabid in this mentality and the way they have spread class warfare is pathetic.

I am so ready to see the exit of Obama, Pelosi, Reid, and the rest of their nasty gang.

So does that mean that all you Obama haters are going to continue to lie about Obama raising taxes even while he cuts more taxes, because that's sure what it sounds like.

If by "lie" you mean "tell the truth" and you mean "raise taxes" when you say "he cuts more taxes" then we'll be lying--a lot.

Just wondering, where do you get your facts?

Seventeen Small Business Tax Cuts and Counting | The White House


............while continuing-

1. the highest corporate taxes in the world

2. increased regulations through the EPA

3. increased banking and lending regulations stifling credit

3. increased expenses via Obamacare

4. continued unfair trade agreements with NAFTA and CHINA most favored nation trade status

5. Regulations to prevent and stifle US domestic oil exploration and refinement

6. Support of the unions, instead of the US worker, for US job development (see Boeing)

7. Support of the "working rights" of illegals, destroying the bargaining power and wages of US workers

8. Support of the trial lawyer's association to continue to pirate US industry



............ Now could your repeat again what YOU THINK Obama is doing for the US WORKER?????????

As long as the EPA (Employment Prevention Agency) continues to run roughshod over the entrepreneurs and job-creators in this country, none of those bills will matter.

His fixation with raising taxes in an economy as bad as this one, as well as deliberately preventing hundreds of thousands of citizens from getting jobs thanks to his subservience to unions and environmentalists, are both substantially more injurious to our economy than anything.

He's not about to reject his radical mindset in believing that the government can create jobs while he continues to insist that 'green jobs' are the wave of the future, despite the rash of bankruptcy filings by
three solar energy companies in the past sixteen months despite receiving 1.5+ trillion dollars in wasted subsidies.

He's been saying that for 3 years now.
Meanwhile China is now the top producer of solar panels.
It takes years to get through the web of EPA and other government agencies to move to green technology. First Solar tried both here and in China. They are already making headway in China while still dorking with government paperwork here in the US.

We are our own worst enemy.

I see. In a post about President Obama cutting taxes you choose not to list any of the myriad tax increases you claim he's enacted.
